This is a common question I get from new weight lifters, and even experienced lifters who recently started lifting heavier weights. If you go into a gym you may see a few people wearing wrist wraps. Some wear wrist wraps due to wrist pain while lifting, and others just wear it for support/protection. You may even see that one guy …

What happened? How can you automatically become weaker …

People often find themselves doing tons of calf raises to bring up their lacking calf muscles, but overtime this can take a toll on the ankle joint/muscles. The ankle joint is underrated in my opinion, and it receives way less attention compared to other joints like your knee or shoulder. People often wear knee braces or massage/stretch their shoulders, but …

I wanted to discuss this common compliant I hear from people at the gym all the time. People often ask me why their shoulder pops/cracks while bench pressing or overhead pressing.
